8 is Great

He’s 8 months old today. And he is AWESOME. Seriously, awesome. As the days go on, he gets more and more fun. He’s constantly learning new things and there are times I can SEE his brain working. Recognition sweeps across his face, his eyes shift back and forth and a little smile appears when he makes a connection between two things. It’s hilarious.

It happened again yesterday when he realized that the thing he was doing with his hand was also what I was doing with my hand. Waving. And after that moment of recognition, he officially became a waver. He’s so proud of himself.

It also happened when he figured this out:

He’s a champion crawler, is starting to pull himself up to standing, and suddenly LOVES playing games with his brothers.

I know it’s only going to get more  fun from this moment on.

I love it when they learn “So Big!” My girl’s latest party trick is waving and you better believe we show that one off everywhere we go.

My little girl is just 15 days older than Ollie. And I LOVE this age. They don’t talk back, they do cute tricks, and they are just so damn happy all the time. Love it.
